- The other day, I met a bear.
- Out in the woods, away out there.
- He looked at me, I looked at him.
- He sized up me, I sized up him.
- He said to me, why don’t you run.
- I see you ain’t got any gun.
- And so I ran, away from there.
- But right behind me, was that bear.
- What do I see, in front of me.
- A great big tree, Oh, lucky me.
- The nearest branch, was ten feet up.
- I had to jump, and trust my luck.
- And so I jumped, into the air.
- I missed that branch, a way up there.
- Now don’t you fret, and don’t you frown.
- I caught that branch, on the way back down.
- That’s all there is, there ain’t not more.
- Unless I meet, that bear once more.
